For those who oppose abortion rights, is it time to enact a national ban on abortion? Well, the issue with Florida is that the southeastern states have very, very strong pro life laws. Florida is litigating under a 15 week [abortion law]. And so we have become, against our wishes, a destination. Now we've also done the Heartbeat Protection act, which would go into effect once the courts clear this, which I think would probably stop the whole abortion tourism thing. (07:40–07:44)
